I'm in a building awaiting my baby to leave
somethings up and time is one minute off the sleeve
i'm devious that she didn't take out the beef
so i'm thinking deep of an argument but it'll get cut off so brief
shes talking to her co worker and the news is on tv
kids are smiling and a baby is near my knee
I smile but something seems strange about the childs grin
as if she feeling something at peace and a new beginning
my heart starts beating and repeating the same process
my inner thoughts telling me something is going down
traffic delays and other sounds
i'm like meh to the thoughts of it
wife is continuing talking while i think about the car
that was traveling at rapid speed
maybe he's late for work beats me
oh great, shes done...our daughter runs up in open arms
the woman i love for 10 years is beside me
a portrait so perfect yet imperfect
the snap shot flicks.....the ground shakes and trembles
collapsed floors and debris...screams come like second line band signals
all in one big burst of satisfaction and reaction was puzzled
can't hear or fear the tomorrow..our lives are his

our story ends.......


"Gotta get these papers up and running
gunning for the 20th floor
my skills are second to none
been working on this paper and the labor is bar none
8:40am, waiting for the elevator...i'm on the first floor
phone rings, girlfriend of 2 years
engaged wants me to come home
enraged...i can't i'm busy
hangs up shes home alone
worried something about to happen
in the lobby 1st building
elevator open and i'm in it
press button...up i go
20th floor, i await to see in a minute a beautiful fate
a shake and a blast
can't hear a thing"
dead ringer and burning victims
smoke debris and chaos comes victoriously
eyes closing and head is hurting me
family I could have had

a story that ended so fast..........


Paddling and looking for bodies
my momma, my brother, my father
WHERE ARE THEE
second to none they are to me
i wasn't there when they needed me
safest part while they were near the 9th
pain echoes my mouth...LONELINESS...ES....ES....ES
stress is manifesting with my flesh
i'm protecting my own thoughts from dispersing in crazy like ways
i find a boat by the way of the street
a body is in it and i'm throwing up at mercy
almost at the house
they GOTTA BE IN THERE
oh jesus..........i can't even tell the difference in my house from others
get on top of the roof and find the opening
open it and..........become one with my family
to conclude a story that i fail to complete

    thus was soo epic!

    Like the way it was written was nice too, one of things that stuck with me is the baby sensing something as well. Babies in fact sense things, I learned that from my own kids!

    This was vivid, u brought it to life.. I enjoyed reading this!
